Chicago born, raised, and educated. Moved to Florida in 2003 to become a teacher here. Worked for 4 years. During that time I became a widow in November, 2006. Have three sons in their 40's. Two in Florida, one still in Illinois. I enjoy seeing many things especailly in nature, love being by the water, watching the sea birds. Looking for a caring, affectionate, somewhat talkative gentleman who will open my door and maybe even pull out my chair on occasion. I enjoy holding hands when we walk, love having a man stand behind me and hug me. Hoping to find a nice guy who is looking for a one man woman, as that is what I am. I'd like to find a one woman man as well. I live in a manufactured home in a gated park so I feel secure, but would enjoy going out once in a while.
